I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Tesla (Fremont, CA)
Interview
Started with an in to to the company through a family friend. Applying online failed, but it finally got my resume to a recruiter who was no help. However, he gave me the name of the university program supervisor. I was contacted about a potential internship from a different university program supervisor. One interview with her over the phone that lead to a follow up with a "mentor". After that an interview with Huibert Mees, Engineering Manager. After that I received an offer.

Question 1
Explain the most involved engineering experience at your last job
Invited me to an interview then ghosted me after I gave availability. They never scheduled the interview. When I followed up, the recruiter didn’t responded to my email. Not sure what happened
My interview was scheduled for about five days after the initial email from my recruiter. It was two 30 minute interviews with members of the prospective team. Standard questions were asked about me, my experiences, and why I think I am a good fit for the role.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you respond when members of your team tell you they don’t have time for you?
1 technical interview followed by a recruiter call if you get the offer. The process was very fast and very simple. Highly recommend applying. The technical interview was amazing, and the interviewer was very understanding if i did not get the answer.
